About this map

Nellis Air Force Range dominates this 1962 landscape in Nye County, Nevada, where the desert floor is carved into a complex drainage system. The primary geological features are the deep, winding paths of Thirsty Canyon and East Thirsty Canyon, which define the topography of this high-altitude basin. To the north, the sharp elevation of Ribbon Cliff provides a stark contrast to the surrounding terrain.
